Barb, Any info you see on the net that says OUR John Graham is the son of William Graham the Signer of the Mecklenburg Declaration is JUNK. Any person who tells you the same has not done any research on our family. I am struggling with the Graham family in Surry Co. NC. Don't know if there will ever be a breakthrough or not. The Penningtons are doing much better. However, if they tell you we are related to Dr. Isaac Pennington of PA, that is also incorrect. Write me at genpics@iopener.net and we can discuss info if you want it. Eleanor Barb wrote: > > Hi Eleanor, > Thanks for the reply.
